Revolution Grand versus Elan Mira A3

[Tracy L. Binder]

I am thinking about purchasing a Revolution Grand steno machine (made by the Neutrino Group out of Denver, CO. ) I have it right now and am tryng it out. I kind of like it. Can anyone give me any comments, pro or con, to buying this machine?

Thanks,
Tracy

Still is ONE keyboard tho....that 'still' causes the pain/health issues to CR's, not a new 'screen'...heck, you could strap a tablet onto a Mira, but the keyboard is still between your legs, hunching you over, bending wrists/etc......can't believe they are not doing a split one yet.

I've had a Gemini since the Gemini2 in 2003, lol. I then went to the Revolution and then to the Grand!! The Grand is perfection!!! I just did a jury trial today and was SO nice to just pick it up and go into the Judge's chambers w/my tablet and Cat software going! Can't do that w/a laptop, LOL! ;) And the tablet is a fully functioning laptop! You can message me w/any questions. I do have some blogging at my page here about my experiences. Mine is GOLD in color! LOVE it! NEVER get fatigued on jobs! NEVER have neck issues or arm/wrists getting tired! If they twinge at all, I just change the position of my keyboards for a bit then bring them back to my regular way. Plus, it sits on my 'lap'...I have a pic of that in the blog. What is more natural than your hands resting on your lap?? Do you normally sit hunched over w/hands between your legs for hours?? LOL. Can't believe Stenograph or others don't do a split keyboard...I will NEVER go back to a regular machine!!!

Well, I took the plunge and purchased the Revolution Grand yesterday. I took the loaner into court for three long days, and while my brain was exhausted at the end of each day, my body was not at all tired or stiff or hurting. I couldn't believe it. It was great, and THAT sold me! Now I am anxiously awaiting the delivery of my very own Revolution Grand.

Yay!!! You're going to be so glad you did! What color did you order?

[Rhoda Collins]

Congrats! Yes, what color did you decide on?? I totally love mine!!

[Tracy L. Binder]

Well, my first thought was to get the Artic Blue. But then I decided to get the Lovely Lavender cuz it's more feminine and I am kind of a girlie-girl! :) When (and if) I get sick of that one, I'll change it to the Arctic Blue.

I am really excited! Bummer that I have to go back to the old one for six weeks, though!

Too bad they don't make colored sleeves like they do for cell phones. Change the color sleeve for whatever mood you're in! It's just so hard picking one color!!

[Tracy L. Binder]

Oh, wouldn't that be great! How fun. Yes, it is really hard deciding on one color.

[Rhoda Collins]

Jason.....here's a new idea, LOL! Good thinking April! ;)

[Jason Pardikes]

I have tried it. I have some that are purple and some that are black, etc. The problem I had was they they were actually scraping the paint off of the actual machine. :) Maybe someday I will go back to it, but I thought it would be cool too.
